GripFixer is ready to go global! Asia, North America, increasing sales in EU, expanding to tennis (and padel-tennis and squash), and sales to the school- and gymnasium-segment in Europe. GripFixer is a small, but very ambitious company – and looking for someone who wants to join the journey of building an international brand – as responsible for sales and export.
What is GripFixer:
GripFixer is a new and innovative teaching aid for badminton (see more on www.GripFixer.com). It’s a small teaching aid that helps beginners with holding the correct grip. The correct grip is essential! At the same time it's difficult to learn – very difficult. I’ve coached badminton for more than 17 years, and know about the difficulties and frustrations associated with learning the correct grip – both for the coach and player - therefore I invented GripFixer. GripFixer was invented in August 2018, and really helps with a huge problem, therefore it has been received very well by the badminton community.
Status:
Funding from DGI Impact, and Innovationsfonden.

Interest from several Asian countries, USA and Canada.
